Suppliers around Millington commonly stock crushed limestone (57 stone and #411), pea gravel, river rock, and class II road base; decorative colored gravels are available in smaller local batches. Crushed limestone is the most common for driveways in West Tennessee because it compacts well and holds up in wetter soils.

Millington sits in West Tennessee where soils often contain clay and can hold moisture after heavy rain, so proper base preparation and drainage are important. For driveways use a compacted class II or crushed stone base with geotextile fabric as needed, and for drainage use clean, washed stone (1/2u0022 to 1u0022) in trenches or French drains to keep water moving away from structures.

Use this quick method: cubic yards = (area in sq ft * depth in inches) / 324, then multiply cubic yards by about 1.3–1.6 to get tons (a typical rule uses ~1.4 tons per cubic yard). For example, a 10x20 patio (200 sq ft) at 2u0022 depth needs 200*2/324 = 1.23 cubic yards, or about 1.7 tons using 1.4 tons/yd^3. Hello Gravel’s calculator can do this for your exact area and preferred depth.

Yes. Millington’s humid climate and heavy summer rains can move surface fines and cause rutting if gravel isn’t well compacted and edged; freeze-thaw cycles are milder but can still cause minor heaving. Expect periodic maintenance such as raking, adding fresh gravel every few years in high-traffic areas, and keeping drainage clear to prolong performance.

Labor-only costs in the Millington area vary with site prep and scope: expect contractors to charge roughly $1.50–$4.00 per sq ft for spreading, grading, and compaction on a straightforward job, or crews billed by the day ($300–$900) for larger installs. If excavation, hauling off soil, or significant grading is needed, add more for equipment and time — get several local quotes for the best comparison.

Common alternatives include asphalt, concrete, and pavers. Rough installed cost ranges in the Millington area are: gravel $1–$3 per sq ft, asphalt $3–$7 per sq ft, concrete $4–$10 per sq ft, and pavers $10–$25 per sq ft; actual costs depend on prep, thickness, and local contractor rates.

Hello Gravel’s standard delivery window is 2+ business days; next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee. Same-day delivery is rarely available and depends on local supplier and truck schedules — check availability for your zip code at checkout.

Drivers may perform tailgate spreading at their discretion and only if it can be done safely; you can request spreading or placement notes at checkout. Because spreading is not guaranteed, mark preferred drop locations clearly and contact our team if you need a larger prep or spreading scope so we can coordinate with suppliers.
